United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres “strongly condemns the unconstitutional change in government” in Niger, his spokesman said on Wednesday.
It came after Nigerien soldiers announced a coup on national TV, saying they had dissolved the constitution, suspended all institutions and closed the nation’s borders.
“Mr Guterres said he was deeply disturbed by the detention of President Mohamed Bazoum and was “concerned for his safety and well-being” his spokesman Stephane Dujarric said in a statement.
“The Secretary-General calls for an immediate end to all actions undermining democratic principles in Niger,” Mr Dujarric added.
